Sprint® Direct Connect® (formerly know as the Nextel iDEN Network) takes push-to-talk to a new level. You’ll get the great capabilities you’ve come to rely upon from Sprint — including group calling and interoperable one-to-one connection (Group Connect is not interoperable) — plus a few new and improved features:
Sprint Direct Connect offers nationwide push-to-talk coverage and 3G data speeds, so you can take business productivity to the next level.
You can now connect in even more places. Sprint Direct Connect service now covers 2.7 million square miles as a result of push-to-talk platform upgrades. The Sprint Direct Connect coverage area now covers nearly three times the square miles, compared to the current Nextel network.
And that’s just the beginning. Major technology upgrades to our network planned for the next few years through Sprint Network Vision will result in a single, cutting-edge network that is expected to improve call quality, increase coverage and data speeds, and enhance in-building coverage.
